The Lexington High School wrestling team recently raised $300 for the McCarty Center through their "Pin for Autism" campaign.
The team had "Pin for Autism" singlets made, and the student wrestlers reached out to sponsors to donate for every pin that each wrestler achieved.
Amy Hughes has a son, Colton, who is a senior on the team and is high-functioning autistic. His coach, Jared Garrett, decided to do something to honor Colton and this was his idea, she said.
